Guys,
I was driving back from frys today and i noticed my oil pressure guage was kinda low, so I was like "thats weird, i put only in you like two weeks ago?" Not more than five minutes later i hear this grind noise then a clank now my engine KNOCKS!!! Guys i need help here, what do you think has happened and whats the possible paths to fixing her. I cant stand the fact of my baby being hurt, so please give me everything you got from possibile remedies to cost even. I dont care what it is, i want my baby back up and running.

Thanks, 3rd

PS, i went ahead and put two quarts of Mobile 1 Performance 10w 40 in her and she still knocks. Please help me guys.

"I feel soo alone now "

 

Lets see,Low oil pressure,grinding noise then a clanking sound.Now you have a knock.I`m no mechanic but it sounds expensive.Doesnt sound good to me.I`d start saving for a GM crate motor or a rebuild.Was it low on oil or running hot when this happened?Was it low on oil when you put thye 2 quarts in it or did you just add 2 quarts to it?

what does that mean?Has it been leaking oil?

 

Nah it doesnt leak oil at all. It wasnt runnin hot, around 160-180, and the oil pressure was alittle below 15psi. But i just added the 2 quarts because i saw that it was low on oil when i got home. But i meant to say that i put oil in her two weeks ago. Im just really sad !!

 

Without being able to hear the knock first hand its hard to really say.Like I said it doesnt look good from your description.Id get by a decent shop and let them look/listen at it.

 

Yeah, my friends neighbor is a mechanic, so i told him and he said he would ask him if he could come over tomorrow and take a look at it. Thanks though man.
